Product details

"Disasterland" is a specialized book that explores the international world of 'natural' disasters. Through a comprehensive ethnographic study, the author Sandrine Revet sheds light on the various elements that contribute to the construction of this world. These include collective narratives, a shared language, and standardized practices used by professionals in the field. The book examines the two main approaches that these professionals use to position themselves in relation to disasters: preparedness and resilience. Revet argues that the creation of the world of 'natural' disasters illustrates how heterogeneous, conflict-laden, and sometimes competing elements are interconnected.
